A group, the National Progressive Hub has said that no amount of political alignment or strategies can vote us out in 2027 if we are united.
TheHintsNews reports the Presidential candidate of Labour Party in the 2023 elections, Peter Obi, his New Nigerian Peoples Party (NNPP) counterpart, Rabiu Kwankwaso and former Vice President Atiku Abubakar of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) recently met, which many people have said might not be unconnected witg the 2027 elections.
Its National Coordinator, Hon. Bukie Okangbe, stated at a press conference on Friday in Abuja while appraising the performance of President Bola Tinubu’s one year in office.
She said while the group was mindful of the happenings in the country, especially with hardship and hunger faced by many families and households, pleaded with Nigerians to bear with the President and have faith in the administration.
Okangbe lamented that some APC members are doing the work of opposition parties which is a sad reality due to internal party rancour.
Okangbe stated: “It’s on this note that the National Progressive Hub is calling on party faithfuls and members to rally round the leaders of our party for a greater victory in the next election.
“The game is gradually building up as many political parties and members are mending fences to challenge the All Progressive Congress hence, a signal that we have to sit up as a united family.
“The ongoing alignment of political parties and politicians in the country shows obviously that some are ready to match up with us come 2027.
“We are confident though that Nigerians are with us more than they were during the last elections due to the leadership quality of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
“We believe that no amount of political alignment or strategies can vote us out in 2027 if we are united. The strength of APC lies in the faithfulness of its members and so the more we pull our leaders down in public, the more we make the opposition stronger.
“It is now getting worse that some progressive members are doing the work of opposition parties which is a sad reality. It is our hope that this press release would put a magic stop to our internal party rancour and make our party stronger and better going forward as progressives that we are.”
